The purpose of this study is to identify which is the better indicator to forcast housing tenureship between permanent income and current income, and study the effects of non-human capital asset on housing tenureship. To forcast permanent income, a statistic regression equation is used with current income as the dependent variable. Multi-nomial logistic model is used to forcast the housing tenureship Using current income as the dependent variable delivered a more accurate result than using permanent income. Current income is used as a dependent variable and sex, age, education and occupation are used as independent variables to forcast permanent income. Non-human capital asset is also used as an independent variable. Also, excluding non-human capital asset variable when forcasting bothe permanent income and housing tenureship proved to be more accurate. Because permanent income, the sum of future income and current asset, is a good indicator of current consumption including housing, the result with permanent income should be more accurate than the forcast using current income. This implies an underdevelopment of a housing mortgage system that enables people to consume now on the basis of their future income. The Korea's unique Chonsei housing rental system has also made it difficult to forcast housing tenureship based on people's permanent income and asset. While, the Key-money of Chonsei housing and the housing asset of homeowners with debt are very similar in their amount, the result is completely different. One is a renter and the other is a homeowner.

돈이 많이 있으면 더욱 행복한가? 돈만으로 행복할 수 없다면 무엇이 중요한가? 행복은 어디서 시작되는가? 한국 성인의 삶에서 어떠한 행복의 조건들이 작용하는가? 어떻게 하면 마음의 행복을 더 잘 설명할 수 있는가? 라는 질문으로부터 이 연구는 출발하였다. 따라서 이 연구에서는 한국 사람들의 행복이 심리적, 관계적, 경제적 자원에 의해 영향 받는 정도를 분석하는데 주된 목적이 있다. 사회경제적지위에 차이가 있는 서울시내 세 지역 주민들을 가정방문하여 성인과 노인들을 표집하였으며, 최종분석대상은 20대에서 80대까지 총 313명(남 133, 여 180)이었다. 측정도구로는 연구자에 의해 제작된 배경정보와 정서적 지원 및 행복 척도와, Bandura(1995)에 의해 제작된 어려움극복 효능감 척도가 사용되었다. 행복에 영향을 미치는 변인들로 구성된 두 개의 연구모형을 경로분석과 효과분석으로 검증한 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째 월평균 수입이 행복에 의미 있는 영향을 미치지만, 월평균 수입 변인이 제외되어도 행복모형의 적합도에 변화가 없었다. 따라서 돈이 있을수록 더 행복하지만, 돈이 없어도 마찬가지로 행복할 수 있음으로써, 경제적 자원이 행복에 미치는 영향은 제한적인 것으로 확인되었다. 월평균 수입이 행복에는 영향을 미쳤으나, 자기효능감에는 영향을 미치지 못함으로써, 돈이 많다고 효능감이 높은 것은 아닌 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 행복 증진의 핵심적인 활력제로서 관계적 자원이 가장 중요하였다. 즉 주위 사람들로부터의 따스한 정서적 지원이 개인의 행복에 미치는 영향이 가장 컸는데, 정서적 지원은 월평균 수입보다 행복에 대한 효과가 4~5배 정도 되었다. 셋째, 심리적 자원인 자기효능감도 행복에 의미 있는 영향을 미쳤다. 즉 어려움을 극복할 수 있는 효능감이 높을수록 더욱 행복하였는데, 자기효능감은 월평균 수입보다 행복에 대한 효과가 2배 정도 되었다. 또한 자기효능감은 정서적 지원과 행복 사이에서 매개변인의 역할을 하였다. 넷째, 직업에서 성취감을 느낄수록 더욱 행복하였다. 직업성취는 월평균 수입보다 행복에 대한 효과가 2배 정도 되었다. 다섯째, 자녀가 성공했다고 지각할수록 더욱 행복하였다. 자녀성공은 월평균 수입보다 행복에 대한 효과가 1.5배 정도 되었다. 여섯째, 학력은 행복에 대해 직접적인 영향은 없었으나, 자기효능감과 직업성취를 통해 간접효과가 약하게 있었다. 일곱째, 연령은 자기효능감이나 행복에 대해 의미 있는 영향이 없음으로써, 나이는 자기효능감이나 행복과 무관한 것으로 밝혀졌다.

This article regressed several predictors of economic behavior, i.e., the locus of control, financial attitude, income, and religiosity, with 460 respondents. The results of the research are as follows: Financial attitude partially influences the financial behavior of Muhammadiyah committee members. Income partially influences the financial behavior of Muhammadiyah committee members. This research indicates that income is one of the factors that plays an essential role in determining the merits of improvement of the financial behavior of Muhammadiyah committee members. The higher the level of income received by Muhammadiyah members, the higher the desire to spend the money. Religiosity partially influences the financial behavior of the religious board of Muhammadiyah members in Indonesia. The higher the religiosity of Muhammadiyah committee members will encourage better financial management. Religiosity indicates how often individuals or Muhammadiyah members practice the religious sharia that they embrace. The findings of this study reveal that locus of control, financial attitude, income, and religiosity are the strong predictors of the board of the religious organization's financial behavior in Indonesia.
